Good Luck Rd.

drove by the agency your parents work at
still somehow shaking a year in between
and i begged that maybe
the problem wasn’t just me
song on the radio
sounds just like he’s saying your name
and i screamed from the passenger seat
and i prayed that one day
you’d realize what you did to me
crying in your parents’ house
your little sister looks confused
you’re wondering how everybody you loved
could suddenly turn on you
i’m tired of being led to believe
things aren’t what they seem
when they’re standing
right in front of me
you may not realize it yet
but i wish you the best
yeah, everything’s fucked
good luck
voice on the other end
cries like i did through a screen
still deflecting two years in between
then i knew for the first time
the problem was never me
they just can’t understand
their heads are in a whirl
saying, “everything could’ve been perfect
if he didn’t hurt those girls”
yeah, they had to eventually
cause you can’t rewrite reality
i’m tired of being led to believe
things aren’t what they seem
when they’re standing
right in front of me
you may not realize it yet
but i wish you the best
yeah, everything’s fucked
good luck

Rittenhouse

meet me at our bench in rittenhouse square
i’ll bring a trembling hand gripping a coffee cup,
dripping everywhere
blistering my fingers with the palest shade of shit
three creams, no sugars, the only way you take it
you ask what this is all about
“why did you ask me to come out
this early in the morning?”
i humor a forewarning
i’m staring at the ground
even the pigeons are cringing now
i take a deep breath and muster out,
“i’m late in every sense of the word
i’m sick and it’s not stopping
something inside is growing
i figured it’s about time that you heard”
you’re staring at the ground
even the pigeons are cringing now
no language to be found
even the pigeons are cringing now
i’m despondent, i’m impatient
i inflict the final blow
“it’s okay, i’m getting rid of it,
i just thought that you should know”
we’re frozen on our bench in rittenhouse square

Easy

you keep your secrets in a sunken chest
i keep mine in a mattress
stains the former tenants made
learning to play their freshman games
said “you make it so easy”
like taking candy from a freshly eighteen
i thought i knew you
do you think you knew me?
i should be mad at you
for what you did
i’m mostly sad for you instead
but if you ever lay a finger
on another girl again
you’ll be dead to me
you make it so easy
we shared our secrets horizontally
you keep mine and you keep me
things i never would’ve done
had i not been the only one
you know i’ve spent the last 3 years
on the verge of sinking
unsure of what’s been keeping me afloat
in that bed was where you showed
you’ve been laying in a pond of your own
how you could drown someone the same way, i’ll never know
i should be mad at you
for what you did
i’m mostly sad for you instead
but if you ever lay a finger
on another girl again
you’ll be dead to me
you make it so easy
the ripples make it hard to sit up
cause part of me still longs for your touch
part of me still loves the person you were in that room
but that was only part of you
i should be mad at you
for what you did
i’m mostly sad for you instead
but if you ever lay a finger
on another girl again
you’ll be dead to me
you make it so easy

End

there’s nothing magical about a goodbye kiss
it’s not so logical when there’s someone else you miss
she’s on a bus ride home, she doesn’t know it,
but she’s waiting for you
darling, i hope she loves you more than i do
you couldn’t say you loved me without rolling your eyes
but i still saw in you a new start, a sunrise
you should have never said those words, we both know it wasn’t true
darling, i hope you’re smiling more than i do
god damn those pisces eyes
the same damn shade as mine
i don’t need you
i’ll keep saying it until it comes true

Holding You To You
04:14
|

|
fishtown row homes, exposed brick wall
tell me again how it’s always all my fault
screaming at me from an empty room
you know i could never trust you
you tell me i’m not trying hard enough
they tell me your resentment will fade
you tell me i’m not doing good enough
but i’m doing better than you were at my age
you’re screaming from an empty room
what will you do when no one’s left to yell
back at you?
replaying voicemails from freshman year
broadcast them for the world to hear
a woman’s voice still ringing through the land
all because she didn’t want to hold your hand
you tell me i’m not trying hard enough
they tell me your resentment will fade
you tell me i’m not doing good enough
but i’m doing better than you were at my age
you’re screaming from an empty room
what will you do when no one’s left to yell
back at you?
you’re screaming from an empty room
no one’s left to yell back at you

God's Gift To Women
02:54

isn’t it fun
picking out all the girls you wanna fuck?
bell hooks on your nightstand
dodge your girl’s messages again
your city’s not as bright as you think
demons hidden inside all the buildings
haunted by the past, but you just push it back
time to watch those skeletons fall
this is your wrecking ball
isn’t it fun
talking shit about me to everyone?
city year on your resume
doesn’t change all the pain you gave away
your city’s not as bright as you think
demons hidden inside all the buildings
haunted by the past, but you just push it back
time to watch those skeletons fall
this is your wrecking ball
keep writing those records
about how you know best
like you’re a walking fucking copy
of infinite jest
but i’m done playing along
not singing along anymore
cause you’re not the person
the world pretends you are
your city’s not as bright as you think
demons hidden inside all the buildings
haunted by the past, but you just push it back
time to watch those skeletons fall
your city’s not as bright as you think
your tenants are evacuating
not sure where they’ll end up, they’ve gotta take the plunge
and find a life free of your faults
this is your wrecking ball

Graceful Rage
03:54
|
|||
|
i told you i wanted to kill myself
you took that as meaning something else
a clever way to get you to stay
a toxic maneuver to quell my heartbreak
i saw you as my companion
you saw me as your biggest fear
you thought i wanted something
cause i said i didn’t wanna be here
now i’ll keep my mouth shut, baby
save it for the ones who love me
graceful rage is all that suits me these days
i hope you’re happy now
telling everyone you love i’m crazy
it’s okay, i understand
but have you talked to someone lately?
now i’ll keep my mouth shut, baby
save it for the ones who love me
graceful rage is all that suits me these days
not a whisper from me, baby
i’ll take the medicine you gave me
graceful rage is all that suits me these days
what if i trusted you?
what if i was scared?
what if i told you because
a part of me still wanted to be here?

I Can't

look at us
who would’ve ever thought
i would leave your city for good
the two of us
i can count on one hand
the times you’ve reached out since then
all the times that you told them
that i was insane
i never met your little sister,
but i remember her name
what caused your sudden change in perspective?
a true change of heart,
or fear of consequences?
you’ve delivered your message
a real stellar work
not at all like the others
those miserable jerks
you’re saying everything i’ve ever wanted to hear
but only after being told to
it’s never been more clear
i can’t forgive you
i’ve learned how to live without your judgment and shame
can’t believe there was a time where i thought i lost something
left my molted layers and uncovered my wings
i’m in love with myself now
can you say the same?
you’ve delivered your message
a real stellar work
not at all like the others
those bastards and jerks
you’re saying everything i’ve ever wanted to hear
it didn’t have to be like this
but now it’s never been more clear
i can’t forgive you
the whole world has bent to your
will for so long
you’ve never been the bad guy
you’ve never been wrong
crack my worth like a code
you thought it’d be easy
the right sequence of words
your war strategy
well i changed the locks,
it’s been so long i forget when
you will never hurt me again
i can’t forgive you
